PLAN B analog blog

I have went as far as thinking of building one myself. The best part  
of the analog world is you don't need to be a programmer - you can  
build things! I found a schematic for the the serge one in an old  
Synapse magazine and the circuit doesn't seem too complicated. I have  
always wondered why somebody isn't making one already. I would love to  
have someone else build one. I would buy one for sure. The best design  
for me would be thinking of it as a combo between a sequencer and a  
manual controller. have 8 or 16 columns by 3 or 4 rows of pots and the  
pads to call up that column. Also allow a clock in to scan the columns  
in sequencer mode. I personally don't need polyphonic and pressure outs.
